Bravo!

Sounds like a symptom of eating too much lembas.

Fantastic! This thread is news to me as well, so I'll just offer my more humble pic of a barred owl (I think) I spotted whilst hiking at Joffrey Lakes in Canada a few years ago.

I know I'm not pointing out anything new here but the juxtaposition of headlines with photos of good looking/rich/royal white people (/cute penguin) is quite striking.

Spread the love!

I was chatting with my nephew last night and he mentioned that he wanted to buy an orrery. Honestly, kids these days want the moon on a stick.

Bravo!!

Ooh, I might see if I can get a bit further than Black Eyed Dog.
Cheers! :)

Thanks, PM on its way.

Chicken tikka, you and I knooooooowww...

Not me neither. Still on-and-off with a niggly knee (taking over from the niggly foot). I'd really like to be fit around that time in order to help defend our Southern Vets road relay title. (I'm the only ever-present team member for five years' titles on the trot). But I'm not committing to Ladywell and have provisionally volunteered for another pacing job, obviously subject to shaking off ongoing niggles.

Fantastic!

Recommendation for a good wheel repair in SE London? Broken spoke and slightly warped rear wheel as a result. My Ambrosio Excellight rims have done ~7,000 miles, but almost exclusively in the dry and I can't really see any appreciable signs of wear, so probably not an excuse for replacement yet.

Awww, thanks for asking! :) Still alive, sort of running but nothing too strenuous. In nursing my dodgy foot I seem to have developed a dodgy knee, which is rather frustrating because it twinged on the rowing machine this morning, which is supposed to be my running x-training fall-back strategy. D'oh! But it is just a twinge so hopefully nothing serious. 120 running miles for June, so ticking over OK, getting to the gym 3-4 x/week and some cycling. There's a low-key Assembly League race next week (new venue, Crystal Palace Park) so I'll do that and hopefully plan a regular return to track if foot/knee are behaving.
Re: breathing, I've not tried the nose-breathing strategy, but I do occasionally try a "perceived effort" tempo run where I go as fast as I can whilst maintaining a 2-2 breathing pattern rather than resorting to 2-1 (i.e. breathe in 2 steps, breathe out for 1). I think this would normally get me to about HM pace, i.e. not quite threshold. Probably a useful exercise when trying not push things too hard (which you might do if tempted to try and hit a certain pace for the tempo.)
